Ah yes, I see what you mean. OP has posted content from Ten Epstein Revelations You Might Have Missed, which is the article that I see after the Israel/X story.
You scrolled past the (annoying) "read more" button and are now on the next article.
Yeah ok, I guess that's what's meant.
I'd be interested to know how the patterns changed - perhaps requests moved to IPv6 which made grouping request origins harder, or maybe too many unconnected users were coming from a single IP and getting false positives (leading to bad UX and support requests).
Throttling efforts led to "brownouts" via 429 errors
Does this mean for the (ab)users, or for the repo? If it's for the bandwidth hogs, then the brownouts are properly a good thing, as it'll force people to pay attention to these otherwise unmonitored systems.
Also, if it makes the upstream service seem flaky and unreliable, it could convince users to set up the proper caching proxy just for self-interested availability reasons.
I can see some companies happily paying for access, as they'll think it's easier than paying someone internally to manage a proxy/mirror, especially as on-prem is unfashionable lately.

Vogager gives you a baby icon (the new account indicator), which makes you seem very young indeed
Yeah, this is most wholesome and relatable thing I've seen on Lemmy for ages
Also there's the style of delivery - old acting used to be very exaggerated and hammy, then there's the kind of flawless but somewhat natural style that OP is talking about, through to today's more realistic "mumbling" style that everyone complains about.
Bad news on the backbone
I couldn't scan a single ASN
I'm trying to figure out what pronunciation or accent the author uses to have this rhyme. A heavy South African accent, so backbone is more like "berckben"? Pronouncing ASN as "a-sone"?
In the other post, you claim you'd ordered them from Etsy. Is it your Etsy shop? I'm struggling to see how both can be true.

Our nucleic acid recovery techinques found a great deal of homo sapiens DNA incorporated into the fossils, particularly the ones containing high levels of resin, leading to the theory that these dinosaurs preyed on the once-dominant primates.
Transcript:
[Three squid-like aliens in a classroom; one alien stands in front of a board covered with minute text and a drawing of a T-Rex skeleton. Two aliens sit on stools watching the teacher alien. The teacher alien on the left is on a raised platform and points at the board with one tentacle.]
Left alien: Species such as triceratops and tyrannosaurus became more rare after the Cretaceous, but they survived to flourish in the late Cenozoic, 66 million years later.
Left alien: Many complete skeletons have been discovered from this era.

It's going to be really funny when our museums get buried in sediment.

Thank you to linguist Gretchen McCulloch for teaching me about phonetic assimilation, and for teaching me that if you stand around in public reading texts from a linguist and murmuring example phrases to yourself, people will eventually ask if you're okay.

Sorry to make you memorize this random string of digits. If it helps, it can also double as a mnemonic for remembering your young relatives' birthdays, if they happened to have been born on February 5th, 2018.

Also, there's things like the Mediterranean that is much saltier than the Atlantic, despite plenty of water flowing back and forth. There's sealife that's only found in the Med, like the Mediterranean monk seal.
